Hi All

I want to know what is the approximative surface temperature of the puck burner. Mine is around 300-315 degree celcius (roughly 575-600 f) and i get white-ish/gray smoke most of the time from various bisquette and i pretty sure inshould get a thin blue smoke. The burner element resistance is 130ohms at the connector

I may be corrected but your burner temp is where it should be. grey white smoke is the norm when smoldering the biskets. the thin blue smoke comes from pellet grills or stick/charcoal grills after they start up and begin creating heat

Thanks, i will live with it!

Btw i will post shortlyabout  my setup!
Basicaly an arduino based controller with a rotary encoder to select temp, a lcd display and an integrated meat probe.

Also upgraded to 900w element

Hi ggrt21;

Welcome to the forum.

Manfromplaid is correct. You burner is producing the correct amount of heat. Mine requesters between 550 - 560 degrees F, and I have a few other appliances on that same circuit, so that may account for my lower temperatures and variances in degrees.

Your setup sounds interesting. I can't wait to see it.

Your burner is generating the appropriate level of heat  My oven requires temperatures between 550 and 560 degrees F, and I have several other devices connected to the same circuit, which may explain the lower temperatures and fluctuations in degrees.

I think so

Sometimes it is very hard to tell. As I read this, it could go either way. Some are more obvious, such as a recent post about a member's smoker shutting down. It gave a list of trouble shooting tips, and in that list it was referring to the bisquettes as pellets. The tips that were listed, could also apply to a pellet grill.
